I have a new lawn (2 years old) and it looks great. I have been using a private landscaper to do the fertilizing. He does not charge us any more than going to Lowe's and buying the bags. We always bought one bag too many so we did not run out. The extra bag we bought now pays for the guy to do it for us.

It is granular and he comes 5 times per year until the lawn is firmly established. He looks at our trees and shrubs while he is here and makes comment if needed. I like the service. I never lived anywhere that would grow a lawn so I am loving it.
